Exige Cup 240


Retaining the attributes of the Lotus Exige Cup, the Lotus Exige Cup 240 is for the extreme enthusiast who thrives on supercar levels of performance both on the road and on the racetrack.

The Exige Cup 240* benefits from the addition of a supercharged and intercooled high revving engine which generates a phenomenal 243 hp (181 kW, 247 PS) and 174 lbft (236 Nm, 24.1 kgm) powering the car from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in less than 4.5 seconds.

With the impressive levels of acceleration, world-renowned Lotus handling and high levels of downforce the result is an outstanding package that immerses the driver in the ultimate Exige experience.

Just one example of Lotus Sport’s production capabilities.

For further information, please contact your local dealer.

*In certain markets the Exige Cup 240 is sold for ‘Track Use Only’ please check with your dealer for specific details.

Sorry, thought everyone knew that Quo’s car is a Maidstone Sportscars converted Supercharged Honda Exige, which came out 2nd (although the winner can hardly be honestly described as a roadcar!) here: British European Car Tuner GP - Auto Performance Optimization Competition

Or the figures that Lotus quoted for the original 240R

The time that Lotus quoted for 240R are 0-60 and the time they have quoted for the 240 cup is 0-62.

Believe they have ‘re-adjusted’ their claimed 0-100mph figure for the 240R

15

It’s still the same on the Lotus web site, 0-60 for the 240r and 0-62 for the cup car.

16

Lotus originally claimed that the 240Rs 0-100MPH time was ‘under 10 seconds’ now they have changed it to 11.2 seconds

17

Lotus originally claimed that the 240Rs 0-100MPH time was ‘under 10 seconds’ now they have changed it to 11.2 seconds

Its still states 0-100 in under 10 on the web site, so where have Lotus revised the times, in the Exige brochure?

2nd by 4 thous of a sec, with a highly average sup set-up if I recall.

Makes me feel proud of my clutch fries chasing (not racing) efforts last week!
